How to spin doc review on my resume?
Poast new message in this thread
Date: September 21st, 2014 2:55 PM Author: Sooty vibrant national security agency I know this topic has been covered here before, but I can't locate the threads ... I'm seeking advice/thoughts on spinning doc review on a resume. I'm a doc review lifer. I haven't even bothered looking for a job outside doc review in years. Anyway, the target job is low level local govt clerk type job. Thanks. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2680214&forum_id=2#26367854) |

This aint doc review. That's lawyer work. Doc review is coding docs for relevance and privilege -- that's it. If you have to analyze facts (which is what responding to discovery is) that's not doc review.

Date: September 21st, 2014 3:48 PM Author: arousing locus If he's doing very basic bottom level coder shit, yes. But if he's creating priv logs, second level review for what actually goes out the door, etc, then I think it's accurate. But then again I've only done doc review in a firm, so maybe it's different since it's tied into the productions more directly.

The things described in the above post are discovery tasks performed by associates. The fact that you don't know the difference means you're not in biglaw and not a litigator. HTH.
